In a surprise twist, Namco Bandai announced a playable demo of Ni no Kuni that will be released on the PlayStion Network tomorrow. The demo will have two sizable areas to explore and two bosses to engage: Guardian of the Woods and Moltaan, both were shown extensively in previous trailers.

It’s rare to see a JRPG get a demo and, while Tales of Vesperia‘s demo wasn’t exactly cream of the crop material, seeing a company go out of there way to just do it is a nice sight to see. Namco Bandai is really surprising me with this game’s marketing and release so it’s a plus to see them put forth their continuing effort for the esteemed title.

Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch will be officially released on January 22, 2013 in North America and January 25, 2013 in Europe.
